Perhaps someone in the know can confirm this. New features only say 64-bit BIM Server on MacOS.

Anyone who would know is still under NDA .. as with previous releases if it hasn't been announced by Graphisoft then you can't talk about it until the NDA is lifted AFAIK.

Yes, only the BIM Server is 64-bit on Mac with AC14.
Seems like rewriting the whole app for 64-bit is a bigger task than that.

Hey, you know more than I do.
Actually, I have not been in contact with the programmers about this so I don't know anything about it.

My booboo.

I read through the brochure too quickly and misinterpreted that one.

Bah, Mac GUI is still broken.

Judging by the interface of the server software it doesn't look like the Mac GUI will be fixed any time soon either.

I don't know if anyone has this architosh issue but there seem to be an article about user interface for "future versions" of ArchiCAD.
